No live excercise, but real bloody war that we sporeans dun even dare to think or talk about..but when the time comes, no western power will come to our aid..we have to do it ourselves..can our troops really defend and repel?I believe our troops can defend Singapore
Nope, unaided in the even of an invasion Singapore is screwed.When the British failed Singapore
just force the enemy to "follow the law.." or sent a complain king to the enemy head to break the person down.Originally posted by Catknight:No live excercise, but real bloody war that we sporeans dun even dare to think or talk about..but when the time comes, no western power will come to our aid..we have to do it ourselves..can our troops really defend and repel?
That's right. The ally must be either US or Russia. That's where the sophisticated weapons are available.Originally posted by jondizzle foshizzle:Nope, unaided in the even of an invasion Singapore is screwed.
Well saidOriginally posted by Timmay:
I believe our troops can defend Singapore
We are a participant in the Five-Power Defence Arrangement
Under this arrangement, joint military and naval maneuvers are held annually
With Australia, Malaysia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom
Other than that Singapore maintains relationships
With the armed forces of Brunei, France, Thailand, Taiwan and the US
Primarily for the purpose of training.
When we train with other experienced armies
We gauge our own training and theirs
We take note of their strengths and weaknesses
And also take note of our own strengths and weaknesses
I'd would say that Singapore army is good enough already
I don't know if you guys saw a news clip that aired last year
The SAF sent a contingent to the US for a live 3G excercise
A high ranking US colonel/general? commented that he was impressed with the contingent's capabilities
But no matter how technologically good an army is
It'd collapse under an inferior one if the soldiers aren't psycologically motivated.
When war comes, would Singaporean males be motivated?
We'll see then
